Hi all, time for bargain hunting now. Once the World Cup is over, STI will shoot up again definitely....
Think Sino Env will head higher and break the 90c barrier
Oil related stocks should start their "engines" soon.
before the world cup, the usual daily trading volume was > 1 billion.
in the boom times a few months back, it was > 2 billion daily.

Crude prices may break record

CRUDE oil may approach a record on expectations that US gasoline inventories will decline as demand surges during the Independence Day holiday, Bloomberg reported.
Eighteen of 34 analysts and traders, or 53 percent, surveyed by Bloomberg News said prices will rise this week. Seven projected a decline and nine said futures will be little changed. Last week 40 percent of respondents predicted an increase.
Prices surged above US$73 a barrel in New York after the Energy Department reported on Wednesday that US gasoline supplies fell 1.09 million barrels. Demand for the fuel rose 1.2 percent to 9.54 million barrels a day. Oil climbed to a record US$75.35 in April on concern Iranian exports may be reduced because of the country's nuclear program.
"It's likely that we'll see US$75 oil before the first week in July is through," said Antonio Szabo, chief executive officer of Houston-based consultant Stone Bond Technologies. "Product fundamentals will help move crude prices higher. Volatility in the Iranian nuclear program negotiations and tension" in the Middle East will also put upward pressure on prices.
Crude oil for August delivery rose US$3.06, or 4.3 percent, to US$73.93 a barrel last week on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Friday's closing price was the highest since May 2. Futures have increased 21 percent this year.
Some analysts have forecast that gasoline demand would fall because of high pump prices. The retail price for regular gasoline averaged US$2.89 a gallon yesterday, or 30 percent higher than a year earlier, according to AAA, the nation's largest motorist organization.
Gasoline consumption in the past four weeks has averaged 9.4 million barrels a day, 0.9 percent higher than the same period in 2005, the Energy Department said.
"Gasoline demand is very good, which is pulling everything higher," said Tom Bentz, an oil broker with BNP Paribas Commodity Futures Inc in New York. "There was talk that demand was being hurt by high prices, but the last few inventory reports have put an end to that."
Prices also rose this week on speculation that units at two Sunoco Inc refineries along the Delaware River were shut.
Sunoco spokesman Jerry Davis said the company doesn't comment on refinery operations. A weeklong shutdown of the Calcasieu Ship Channel in Louisiana disrupted oil supplies to refineries in the Lake Charles area.
US crude oil imports declined 4.1 percent to an average 10.5 million barrels a day last week, the department said. Imports of petroleum products such as gasoline and diesel plunged 17 percent to 3.1 million a day in the week ended June 23, the lowest since April.
A top Iranian official on Thursday dismissed calls to accelerate Iran's decision over whether to accept incentives in return for ending uranium enrichment. Group of Eight foreign ministers in Moscow said they were disappointed that Iran hasn't yet responded to the incentives and expect a response during July 5 talks between the Islamic republic and the European Union.
